Men can be sensitive about their looks, their attitude, or their possessions, but the one thing that strikes a nerve the most with the male gender is when you start talking about the size of their penis. In response to that sensitivity, and the fact that many men are unhappy with the size of their genitals, many companies have put products on the market that claim to increase the overall size of the penis. Unfortunately, most of them don’t work or have extremely unpleasant side effects.

Pills have side effects and don’t provide permanent results.

Pumps or vacuum tubes can damage the penis, preventing erections.

Surgery, while effective in adding length, can actually destroy sensitive and cause the patient to lose the ability to become erect.

The only proven non-surgical method for increasing the length and girth of the penis is known as penis stretching. We’ll discuss what this method is, what it entails, and its potential in a moment.

What is a Penis Stretcher?

“Penis stretcher” sounds like a medieval torture device, but it is anything but a good, medical grade penis extender is known as a ‘penile traction device’ and it is designed to put constant tension on the penis.

In many ways, it is similar to working out to build muscles throughout your body. Much of that ache that you feel after lifting weights or running is the result of micro tears throughout your muscles. As these heal, they generate new muscle tissue, increasing the overall mass of your muscles.

Penile traction devices you may find online work in much the same way. By putting a constant gentle tension on the penis, it causes painless micro tears in the tissue. As these heal, it creates new tissue, increasing the overall length and girth of the penis.

What about Weights?

Most medical grade traction devices will not require the use of weights for stretching. This is for two primary reasons:

Weights have to dangle beneath the penis. If you move around, it can cause them to shift, putting uneven tension on the tissue and even possibly causing damage.

It’s impossible to tell the kind of tension that your skin can take. What would amount to a small weight for one person could cause tears or tissue damage in someone else.

You can find sets that claim to be penis stretchers that utilize weights, but these are more often sold for personal pleasure rather than for actual penis enlargement.

What does penis stretching entail?

If you’re using a medical grade penis stretcher, the process is fairly simple. All you do is install the traction device, according to the instructions, and wear it for as long as is comfortable. It’s as simple as that.

Most traction devices will attach in two places, just below the base and the head of the penis. Once it is installed, you will be able to adjust the tension to a comfortable level.

Things to look out for

First, never wear a penis stretcher if it becomes painful. If you start experiencing any pain or discomfort beyond the standard tension of the penis as it is being stretched, take it off immediately. It may feel odd at first, before you get used to the stretching sensation, but it should never be painful.

Second, don’t buy the cheapest penis stretcher that you can find. In this case, you definitely get what you pay for. Cheap extenders often break easily, provide inconstant tension, or can actually cause injury. A good quality penile traction device should probably cost you around $200.

So, do they work?

When it comes right down to it, do penis stretchers work? In a word: Yes. In more than one word: Yes, but don’t expect to see immediate results. Using medical grade penile traction devices is the best and in many cases the only way to actually increase penis size without resorting to invasive and possibly ineffective surgeries. That said, though, it does not work quickly.

Most people who reported positive results didn’t start seeing those results for 3-6 months. The best thing about using a stretcher instead of some of the other types of ‘penis enlargement’ is that the results, once obtained, are permanent.

Conclusions

If you’re not happy with the penis size that you currently have, don’t worry. You don’t have to resort to nasty, invasive, and expensive surgery to increase the length and girth of your penis. Invest in a penis stretcher and in a few months’ time you will see the results you’ve been craving.
